Two Ingredient Lemon Bars

Ingredients:

1 box angel food cake mix
2 cans lemon pie filling (I used two 21 oz cans of Comstock pie filling ( total of 42 oz)


Directions:


Mix dry cake mix and cans of pie filling together in large bowl.
I just mixed it by hand...
Pour into greased 9 x 13″ baking pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until top is starting to brown.


NOTE


Mine took the full 25 minutes to get done and did not brown on top at all :))
Cool on wire rack and sprinkle with powered sugar. It has a melt in your mouth spongy texture.
